Don't believe me because you see me as your teacher. Don't believe me because others do. And don't believe anything because you've read it in a book either. Don't put your faith in reports, or tradition, or hearsay, or the authority of religious leaders or texts. Don't rely on mere logic or inference, or appearances, or speculation. See for yourself what is true- that's the only way you can genuinely know anything.
-Buddha
I think I saw that quote in someone's IM profile years ago, and I've kept a copy of it since then. I don't know where it came from, but I like it. My intention is to use this blog to explore the serious side of some of the lighter things in life, mostly poker and sports, hopefully with a lot of humor thrown in. If I can mix in elements of HDouble's poker blog( http://cardsspeak.servebeer.com/) with half the humor and insight of the Sports Guy ( http://sports.espn.go.com/espn/page2/simmons/index) and have as much fun as the Sports Junkies (http://www.junkiesradio.com/) I'll be proud of this. And if it is none of those thing, it is still my way of seeing for myself what is true.
